Rabbit in the Moon - Mini Event

[supremefaith]

So, Makoto has accomplished one of her dreams and between what she has earned from work (and probably loans which she'll never be able to pay off) she's managed to procure for herself a bakery. She will officially christen the bakery "Rabbit in the Moon" in honor of the Tsukimi story of the Jade Rabbit (it's also a nod to the other rabbit of the moon, Usagi). Speaking of Tsukimi, she will be holding the abridged version of the Tsukimi festival on the bakery's opening night. It's the moon viewing festival and it typically lasts much longer than one evening--mid September to mid October thereabouts--but she's holding it on the night of the 19th (full harvest moon time). So anyone who wants to come can enjoy the ambiance, she'll try to make it as authentic as she can, and they can sample her baked goods. Since she'll be spending a lot of time experimenting with flavors to get approximations the variety will be limited, but a version of tsuki dango will definitely be on the menu. So to reiterate! Instigating Character/Incident: Makoto Kino. Once she gets her bakery up and running she'll want to celebrate the grand opening with a gimmick. Event Outline: Around this time of year the Tsukimi festival takes place and the duration is usually between September and October, but Makoto wants to celebrate it only on the night of the harvest moon. It's basically advertisement for her bakery which she plans on naming "Rabbit in the Moon" which is both a nod to Usagi and the Tsukimi festival fairy tale. Basically people will come to sample her goods and look at the moon (mingle, be at peace with the universe, whatever). Areas Affected: It will be held in the Wood Sector. Long-Term Impact: Returning customers and (hopefully) a pretty good foothold in the Baking Industry. Makoto might also be able to manipulate the food in different ways with her personal flavor palette which could also have an effect, at least as far as baked goods go. Suggested Duration & Dates: The night of September the 19th. No pressure. It's going to be a pretty relaxed affair and if you have anything you'd like to bring to the table I'm totally open. Makoto is only 15 and her business sense is limited, so she'll definitely take pointers from anyone with experience in that particular realm as well.

... this is an adorable event. TYVM. I'll try to have brain enough to toss at least Bucky, possibly both boys, in.

[supremefaith]

I understand about having brain enough, mine's about to ooze out of my skull XD I look forward to seeing Bucky (and possibly Damian) there :3

[demon_brat]

Yesh, exactly. With added flavor of either screaming around shouting, or wanting to just faceplant into bed and forget about the world...

AHEM. :) Yesh.

It's the vampire of the bakery world o.o Makoto had better keep something set aside for him.

Costigan will visit and buy some stuff to support her. He'll also try to protect her from any shrewd business types like Lex or Bruce Wayne.

[supremefaith]

Billy...you're made of all kinds of awesome XD Her belief and faith in people tends to make her an easy target for the shrewd types, so she might need someone to have her back there. Intuition only gets you so far.
